Footprints in the Sand, A life journey (eBook, ePUB)

Produktbeschreibung

I have endeavored to make this a very different book. I think I can say without any fear of contradiction, there has never been a book of poetry like this one. Each poem has a picture of what inspired me to write it, along with a short narrative on the event, place, or thing that created the underlying emotion it created. My mission, admittedly ambitious for an aspiring, not widely known poet simply stated, is to hopefully start a process of moving poetry back into the mainstream of American art and readership. Poets can make a bigger contribution to 'making life bearable' for the average reader by writing about for this audience in a style that is easily understandable and digestible, and about topics that address the needs for this audience.

Autorenporträt

Alan is a best-selling author, a poet, a former member of the U.S. Congress, a former Member of the White House Staff, and former Vice-Chairman of Alexander Proudfoot Company. He has been a Chairman of the Dallas Council on World Affairs, a Board Member of Sterling Software (NYSE), Aristocrat Technologies (ASX), and the Texas Growth Fund. He is a graduate of Baylor University, holds a master's degree from Southern Methodist University and was a resident fellow at the Institute of Politics at Harvard University. He also is a certified yoga instructor. >His first two books, Yoga on the Yellow Brick Road and Managing Your Monkey, were both focused on the current unprecedented anxiety and stress epidemics and equipping individuals with a regimen to create the resilience to manage through the turbulence life sometimes presents. This book, Footprints in the Sand, is a departure from that theme. He writes on poetry with a focused mission to bring an appreciation once again to this art-form among the broader population.
